from press press release

WINGATE, N.C. - University of Tampa junior goalkeeper
Joseph Fiorucci (Shirley, N.Y.) has been named the Deep South
Conference Defensive Player of the Week and attackman Jonathan
Franzese (Lynbrook, N.Y.) was named freshman of the week.

Mars Hill College senior attackman T.J. Cowx (Delta, British
Columbia) has been named the first Deep South Conference Offensive
Player of the Week.

Fiorucci played a big role in Tampa's season-opening win against
Florida Southern, racking up eight saves while allowing only four
goals. His stellar play helped the Spartans notch a victory in it's
first-ever lacrosse game. Fiorucci added a ground ball to help
Tampa capture an early DSC conference win.

Franzese also contributed to Tampa's 7-4 win, scoring a pair of
goals for the UT. He did his damage on two shots, while adding a
ground ball on the day. The freshman scored the game-winner for the
Spartans in the fourth period against Florida Southern College.

Cowx led Mars Hill to an 11-5 season-opening conference victory
over Rollins College. Cowx had two goals and two assists for the
Lions. He took four shots on the afternoon, including three shots
on goal. Cowx also piled up seven ground balls for Mars Hill.
